In the same vein as: http://seclists.org/lists/linux-kernel/2003/Oct/5794.html ...there is a bug in the SiS900 driver in 2.6.1 which prevents multicast MAC filtering from working properly. This breaks IPv6. Patch attached (same one as from the 2.4 post from Oct 28) that made IPv6 work for me again. /cah --- linux/drivers/net/sis900.c.old 2004-01-17 03:56:53.893211412 -0600 +++ linux/drivers/net/sis900.c 2004-01-17 03:57:02.785567615 -0600 @@ -2091,9 +2091,8 @@ rx_mode = RFAAB; for (i = 0, mclist = net_dev->mc_list; mclist && i < net_dev->mc_count; i++, mclist = mclist->next) { - unsigned int bit_nr = - sis900_mcast_bitnr(mclist->dmi_addr, revision); - mc_filter[bit_nr >> 4] |= (1 << bit_nr); + set_bit(sis900_mcast_bitnr(mclist->dmi_addr, revision), + mc_filter); } } - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
